Chapter 67
70% of Ming Yichen and Ning Chaoyun's files were false. Furthermore, the original owner's birthplace was France, and they attended elementary school there. Weisheng falsified and altered the original owner's registration information before the age of ten, leaving almost no authenticity.
They had been living in Xiangcheng before, and many people knew them and their origins. If they really had any conflict with those red sleeves, all the fake files would be exposed.
And in an era when transportation and communication were not well developed, the possibility of being exposed when carrying fake files to Kedong City, 6,000 miles away, was very, very low.
They have real files in their hands, and it will be easy for them to return to the city once the college entrance examination is resumed.
Now that the train had started, everyone's worries gradually subsided.
Ning Chaoyun first looked around the small train compartment, then drove Ming Yichen and Weisheng out.
The father and son stood and sat at the door of the private room, watching Ning Chaoyun busying herself with cleaning. During this time, Ming Yichen was particularly considerate and asked Weisheng to ask her grandmother for a basin of water.
His wife was wiping and wiping, so he had to get water to wash the rag for her.
If it was just a few hours, Ning Chaoyun could still bear it, but their train took 52 hours to reach Kedong City, which was unbearable for Ning Chaoyun.
It only took an hour or two to clean the small private room, and they could stay there comfortably and cleanly for two days and two nights. In Ning Chaoyun's opinion, this deal was worth it.
He piled the bedding and pillows from the three beds onto the upper bunk, then took a rag and wiped all the way from the window to the car walls, doors, and other places that could be wiped.
After finishing, he squatted down and wiped the bottom of the lower bunk with another rag that could be used as a mop, then put a layer of plastic sheet underneath. Finally, he divided their three handbags and three backpacks into two rows on the left and right, and stacked them neatly underneath.
After getting up, he took out three pieces of rough but very thick old linen and spread them on the three bunks. After that, he found the sheets, quilts and pillows at home and spread them out.
Ning Wangxue asked Weisheng for a cardboard box, packed the thermos and other accessories from the car, and then secured it to the luggage rack above the door. She also spread a checkered tablecloth on the small table and placed their water cups, thermos, and other items on it.
Seeing that the food was almost ready, Weisheng kindly provided a very beautiful fruit plate and a plate of fruits with skin that did not need to be washed.
The small table in the box was a bit small, so Weisheng closed his eyes and searched in the space, and actually found a not-so-big folding table.
The table is not high and can be pushed directly under the small table in the carriage. When in use, it can be pulled out directly. When not in use, some small items can be placed on it.
Like books, candy boxes and so on.
Since they had their own bed sheets, Ning Chaoyun took Weisheng and the other two and changed into specially prepared home clothes before sitting on the bunk.
Sitting on the bed in outer clothes was challenging Ning Chaoyun's nerves.
╮(╯▽╰)╭
Looking at Ning Chaoyun who even took out her household slippers, Weisheng couldn't imagine how she would reconcile with her mysophobia in the countryside.
As his mind raced, he saw Ming Yichen, who had already opened a physics book and was reading it with great interest. Weisheng's solar plexus jumped uncontrollably.
"Mom, how much money do we have left?"
Ning Chaoyun was using the water in the thermos to make milk powder for Weisheng. When he heard Weisheng ask this, he just said casually, "There's not much left."
"How much is too little?" Weisheng took the prepared milk powder with full of resistance and said to Ning Chaoyun, "It's different now. I won't drink milk powder anymore."
Because Weisheng first asked about money and then mentioned milk powder, Ning Chaoyun thought he was worried about not having enough money at home. Although she also felt that the family's savings were too small, she still smiled and said to Weisheng, "Don't worry, we still have a little over 100,000 yuan saved. Even if we have to drink milk powder for a hundred years, we can still afford it."
A little under 100,000, not much left?
Weisheng was instantly speechless by Ning Chaoyun's values.
But in a moment, Weisheng understood why Ning Chaoyun had such a mentality.
Knowing that the family still had nearly 100,000 yuan in savings, Weisheng felt more at ease.
Even if they go to the countryside and earn few work points, they will not be anxious because of their lack of savings and low income.

They took everything with them except their house during this move, so even though the journey was long and tedious, they did not experience any inconvenience in their lives.
After drinking the milk powder, Weisheng rinsed his mouth with clean water and then lay down on the upper bunk.
Ming Yichen washed the cups as Ning Chaoyun requested, and came back with some water for washing. After that, he continued to read the book he brought with him.
The soft sleeper compartment is unlike other carriages. It has a separate light switch, so Ming Yichen can read as late as he wants.
Ning Chaoyun did the same. She brewed a pot of fruit tea and took a book to read opposite Ming Yichen.
She was reading a collection of French essays, and sometimes when she saw a sentence she liked, she would read it to Ming Yichen in French.
Weisheng has the original owner's memories and can speak and understand French, but she still found two French books and planned to make all the French knowledge mastered by the original owner her own.
However, while reading the French book, Weisheng was also thinking about what she wanted to learn in this life.
In her second life, she used the mechanical manufacturing and repair skills she learned in her first life to live the life she wanted. In her third life, she used the Chinese and Western medicine skills she learned in her second life to ensure her livelihood. In this life, she used the antique appraisal and restoration skills she learned in her third life to forge a file for her family of three.
This was her fourth life, and also her fourth time traveling across time. This time, she still had to learn some practical skills and knowledge.
But what should I learn?
…
I don't know when I fell asleep, and when I woke up, Ming Yichen had already brought breakfast back.
The dining car was not far from the soft sleeper car, only three hard sleeper cars away. Ming Yichen took his lunch box to the dining car and got some porridge and steamed buns.
Ning Chaoyun woke Weisheng up and asked her to take out the bottle of pickles from home before urging her to wash up.
In the morning, I had kimchi, eggs cooked in the guesthouse room the day before, freshly cooked porridge and steamed buns fresh from the pot, which was refreshing and appetizing.
After the meal, Ming Yichen went to wash the lunch box. Ning Chaoyun opened the door and window of the box again, let the smell out, and then cleaned up the entire small box again.
Later, the family of three sat back in the lower bunk, some reading and some knitting.
Weisheng took out a French novel and read it slowly, occasionally looking up to see what his parents were doing.
Ming Yichen was holding a pen and calculating something. After looking at it for a while, Weisheng thought it looked like a circuit diagram.
Ning Chaoyun bought some red wool and was knitting a big scarf for Weisheng.
Looking away, Weisheng couldn't help but want to laugh. Only after being with this couple did Weisheng understand what it meant to be spoiled.
She bought food, cleaned up the room, and washed the dishes after dinner. She was almost never asked to do anything. A fourteen-year-old girl was even more spoiled than a modern child.
Although this couple treated her very well, perhaps because the time was too short, she preferred Wei Zhensheng, the old man who had celebrated his 21st birthday decades ago.
However, the feelings between people are developed through getting along with each other. Perhaps as time goes by, the feelings will become stronger.
At noon, the family of three decided to eat in the dining car. Weisheng did not let Ming Yichen go to find the conductor, but poked a few times with tools and locked the car door.
Eating on a dining car sometimes required not only money but also national food coupons. Fortunately, they had all of these things. After taking a look at the menu, they ordered two dishes, one meat and one vegetable, and three bowls of rice.
There is a price behind each dish. For example, for the two dishes they ordered, the meat dish had money + food coupons behind it, while the vegetarian dish had just money behind it.
The food was just average, but for the three of them who hadn't had a proper meal in the past two days, they weren't picky about the taste.
Like many families, Ning Chaoyun and Weisheng are content with just eating their fill, while Ming Yichen is also responsible for the "Clean Plate" campaign while eating his fill.
When they were returning to the soft sleeper car after dinner, they encountered a snack vending cart again. Without waiting for Weisheng to react, Ning Chaoyun and Ming Yichen stopped and asked what was available and what Weisheng wanted to eat.
Weisheng took a look and only took a bag of five-spice melon seeds, not anything else.
The most interesting thing was that when they returned to the carriage, Ning Chaoyun took out three pieces of paper and a stapler, and used the stapler to roll the paper into the shape of an ice cream cone. He then gave one to Weisheng and Ming Yichen, and asked them to use it as a trash can, spitting the shells into it while eating melon seeds.
Anyway, she would never allow the two of them to spit melon seed shells on the ground.
The 52-hour journey gradually came to an end amid Ning Chaoyun's various mysophobic behaviors, Ming Yichen's various calculations, and Weisheng's reading, eating snacks and fruits.
Two hours in advance, Ning Chaoyun started packing up and even chased Ming Yichen, who was in the way, into the corridor.
Weisheng was not chased away, but he stood at the door of the box, ready to put his luggage into the space at any time.
With still an hour before the train arrived, Ning Chaoyun restored the compartment to its original state before they boarded the train.
Thirty minutes before the train arrived, Ning Chaoyun took Weisheng to the bathroom, and then urged Ming Yichen to go as well.
Less than five minutes before the train arrived at Kedong Station, Weisheng and the other two were already waiting at the exit with their backpacks and handbags.
There were few people in the soft sleeper car, and even fewer people getting off. Compared to the long queues in other cars, their side looked a bit deserted.
It was evening when they boarded the train and midnight when they got off, so they didn't go anywhere after leaving the train station and went straight to the nearest guesthouse.
They had dinner in the dining car. The three of them were a little hungry at this time, so they ate some fruit biscuits and then went to bed.
The next day, all three of them got up late. After washing up, they went out to have breakfast and took a walk around Kedong City to buy some cotton coats for the winter.
After staying in Kedong City for two or three days, Ming Yichen and Ning Chaoyun bought all their things, and Weisheng also visited several scrap recycling stations when the couple was not paying attention.
After all three of them were satisfied and had gained a lot, they took a bus to Lianbai Town.
By the way, Weisheng learned from his experience of not being able to get on the bus when he went to the countryside that year. This time, he went to the bus station a day in advance to find the driver, gave the driver three yuan, and asked the driver to help reserve three front seats for the three of them.
I went to the bus station half an hour in advance and got on the bus with the driver. When the driver drove the bus to the boarding position, Ming Yichen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had already chatted with the driver for a while.
To encourage the driver to talk more, Weisheng took out two packs of cigarettes from his space and handed them to him. The driver smoked and drove, while enthusiastically introducing Kedong City, Lianbai Town, and the villages below to Ming Yichen.
During this time, the passengers who heard what the driver said also started talking one after another.
Some corrected the driver, some supplemented his remarks, and some changed the subject mid-sentence. No one let the conversation rest, and the conversation grew increasingly lively. Regardless of whether they knew each other or not, everyone laughed and joked loudly like familiar friends.
Weisheng was relatively okay; after all, she'd been to the north before and knew most northerners were like this. Ning Chaoyun and Ming Yichen, on the other hand, had never seen something so normal to northerners as outrageous to southerners.
But no matter what, the journey of just a few hours made Ming Yichen and Ning Chaoyun more familiar with and looking forward to life in the countryside.
But bullying is not limited to the north or south, and rat droppings often end up in the porridge...
